Now, this divine sense belonged to a being from the Great Han Imperial Dynasty, one who had truly ascended to the position of True God. Just one True God could obliterate the Destiny Dragon of one's own Celestial Dynasty with a single word, a Destiny Dragon capable of resisting the might of a Celestial God!
"The Great Han Imperial Dynasty, impossible! That's the destiny of an entire empire. How could the Great Han Imperial Dynasty possess such a monstrous talent? The vast chasm between realms can be broken at will before a being from the Great Han Imperial Dynasty; they can fight across levels!"
Wei Boping's right hand trembled. This was the hand that held the military power of an empire, yet now it dared not clench tightly.
The Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty and the Great Han Imperial Dynasty had no prior friction. They had never even heard of a force like the Great Han Imperial Dynasty.
"Could it be for the cultivation method of a supreme True God?"
Wei Boping muttered to himself. As a general of an empire, he now cowered in his residence, not daring to move an inch.
"The Great Han Imperial Dynasty?"
Deep within the capital, a Celestial God of the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty opened his eyes. He had no intention of making a move. The Emperor's command was merely to observe the Gate of Fortune. He didn't want to bother with such trivial matters, lest it waste his time.
However, he did not close his eyes to cultivate. He merely stared at the divine sense in the nine heavens, for he too could not pinpoint the true location of this "Chaos Demon King" from the Great Han Imperial Dynasty.
"Hmm?"
"Strange! A mere True God ant, how could they obstruct my divine sense?"
Had the Void Gods become so powerful now?
...
Just half an hour before Cheng Yaojin descended upon the capital of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty, the Emperor of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty had already convened a court assembly to discuss the current situation and how to ensure the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty could safely navigate this great war.
Worldly affairs were unpredictable, and battles were ever-changing. They hadn't expected the Gate of Fortune to act so decisively, completely severing the connection of the teleportation arrays. Fortunately, before this, a Celestial God from the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty had been ordered to guard the capital, strictly preventing the divine pressure from the Gate of Fortune!
With a Celestial God overseeing, it did bring a slight sense of security, but it was still insufficient. Especially since the first battle at the Lingxu Palace had ended in failure, and the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty's army was rapidly advancing into the territory of the Dragon Elephant Ancient Kingdom. The situation was not favorable for the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty.
They wished for the Gate of Fortune to be annihilated quickly. Every day that passed felt like an eternity, filled with immense torment.
They feared that once the Gate of Fortune was free, and a Celestial God descended to suppress them, even the Celestial God of the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty might find it difficult to resist!
By then, the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty would be finished!
"Your Majesty, the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty's army is currently advancing towards the territory of the Gate of Fortune, but their marching speed is extremely slow. I suspect that the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty is also hiding its true strength!"
In the court of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty, a middle-aged man in princely attire was speaking to the Emperor of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty, who sat on the imperial throne.
His tone of speech implied an equal footing, not treating the Emperor as an Emperor, but rather as an equal.
The Emperor of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty, sitting on the throne, did not get angry. Instead, he listened intently to the prince's words.
As for all the civil and military officials, they showed no signs of anger!
This prince, who lacked courtly manners, was the current Emperor's elder brother and a genuine True God expert!
When they had vied for the position of Emperor, this prince had been a step behind in cultivation, only breaking through to the True God realm after the current Emperor. One step behind meant eternal separation from the throne.
After ascending to the throne, the current Emperor had not been arrogant. Instead, he treated his elder brother with utmost respect and courtesy.
"Prince, what do you mean?"
At this moment, an old man frowned and stepped forward: "Wouldn't this action by the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty benefit them in no way?"
"Hmph!"
"Pedantic scholar!"
The prince stood up in anger, startling the old man into hastily retreating. The prince turned his head: "Your Majesty, the Lingxu Palace, the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty, the Nangong Family, and the Nine Li Celestial Dynasty have all mobilized their forces. Yet, only the Lingxu Palace has engaged in a fierce battle with the Gate of Fortune, suffering heavy losses!"
"And the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty, with no effort, has occupied the Dragon Elephant Ancient Kingdom. Looking at the marching route of the An Yuan army, I suspect it will take at least half a month to reach the border!"
"Your Majesty, these top powers each have their own agendas. We cannot put all our hopes on a single tree!"
"What do you think we should do?"
The Emperor of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty stared coldly. Although he was respectful to his own elder brother, he was, after all, the Emperor of an empire.
Otherwise, if the Emperor were not an Emperor and the ministers were not ministers, it would be a sign of national chaos.
"Your Majesty, we..."
"Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty ants, come out and accept your doom!"
"The Chaos Demon King Cheng Yaojin of the Great Han Imperial Dynasty challenges you!!"
The prince stepped forward, just beginning to speak, when suddenly, a furious roar like divine thunder from the nine heavens exploded in the imperial court. Some low-cultivation officials spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and fell scattered throughout the court.
Even the Emperor and the Prince, both at the True God level, turned pale. Although this aura enveloped the entire capital, most of its might fell upon the imperial palace.
"Who?"
The prince's face flushed with rage. Despite the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty being in crisis, with a True God from the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty present, who dared to be so presumptuous and provoke the might of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty!
"Rise!!"
The Emperor, unable to pinpoint the divine sense, immediately summoned the national destiny of his empire to envelop the capital.
"Roar!!"
The dragon destiny condensed, and the long dragon struck the heavens!
"Mudworm!"
"Get lost!!"
Another thunderous roar echoed from the nine heavens. The destiny dragon shattered directly. The Emperor of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty coughed up a mouthful of divine blood, his imperial robes tearing apart. The next moment, under the prince's disbelieving gaze, wisps of dragon energy and imperial might began to dissipate from the imperial throne.
"Crack, crack~~"
The imperial throne, having lost all its dragon energy, began to crack. Immediately, dense cracks spread outwards from beneath the throne!! Su Dan Novel Network
"National Destiny... National Destiny~!"
The Emperor of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty was now weak, his dragon energy shattered. He had borne the full brunt of Cheng Yaojin's thunderous roar. With a single word, his destiny collapsed, divine blood splattered, and he was left half-dead. His jet-black hair, before the prince's eyes, turned snow-white!
"Your Majesty!!"
"Your Majesty!!"
The prince's eyes flashed with blood. As a member of the imperial clan, he naturally understood the consequences of the dissipation of destiny. The national destiny of the Blood Origin Celestial Dynasty was the culmination of tens of millions of years of arduous accumulation. Its collapse now was an omen of heaven's collapse!
"Ah!!!"
The prince, holding the half-dead Emperor, roared to the sky. This was his own brother, the younger brother who had always followed him, shouting "Brother! Brother!" since childhood!
"Die!!"
The prince stood up, his fury erupting to the heavens, blasting open the roof of the imperial court. He stepped into the void, but his divine gaze swept across the sky, yet he could not find the figure of the Chaos Demon King Cheng Yaojin from the Great Han Imperial Dynasty!
